Tie report Of the Chief Engineer Of the

Ordinances, to whom 1t had been referred,
and was taken up on It's second reading.
The Mayors salary was fixed at $50. The
salary Of the Treasurer, as reported was
fixed at 800. It was amended making 1t
5000, which creatsd considerable discus
sion. In addressing the Council menu
Dor from the First Ward. {Mr. Kearns,)
gave notice that the citizens would look
to the party In power as regards the In
terests Of the city and he would remind
the Democratic party that they had not
the whiskey interests at the present time
to back them and II the expenses were
increased, instead Of lessened, we should
have to increase our rate of taxation.
For his part be was for making our taxes
as light as could be TO give encourage
ment to the Lambertville improvement
Company and all parties who would wish
to locate with US in manufacturing, and
if the party In power (the Democratic)
attempted to increase our taxes the voters
would be heard from In the future.
The City Clerks salary was made $3.50.
the same as at present. A motion was

lost. The Overseer OF the Poor's salary

siderable discussion was carried. The

as reported, So, per day, while on duty,
amended, making 1t $50. On the third
and fiual reading it passed as above.
The Lamps and Gas Committee was
authorized to have all the lamps put In
order. This motion created great
amount of discussion, Wilmot and Sproat
favoring the motion, arguing that It was
right and only fair that all citizens should
enjoy the privilege for which the city is
paying.
Bill of the Lambertyille Gas Co. was
received and an order was authorized to
be drawn for the amount when they we're
satisfied as to the correctness of the bill.
There we're objections made to drawing

TO employ other legal talent to perform
that which he ought to have attended to.

LETTER FROM MOUNT AIRY.

MOUNT AIRY, N. j., April 4, 1887.
Neighborhood Nesos.--The year 1885
dawned upon us in peace and harmony,
but soon after its advent, little busy
bee from the sunny South came flying
hither on horseback, since which time
peace and harmony has been unknown.
Extortion, coercion, boycotts, hard cider
and decapitation have been the order Of
the bee, and 81 old sailors ruthlessly
pushed into the sea, and many more Of
Tended BY the risky little bee. In oil its
cummings during the year, little was
heard but novels, dance parties, tobacco
and beer. The garden, the sick, dead
and dying were LEFT severely alone In their
need, while novels were read, the flock
on such trashy stuff to feed, dance party
was attended while the lambs slept. Good
Lord, how the angels at this must have
wept. Then went the little bee buzzing
around, saying 10 another Bob Ingersoll
has been found But upon what 1t found
ed this hobby, seems strange, for truly 1t
never conysrsed with Bobby though
little bees OF Neighborhood News, are
not particular the truth to choose; they
grasp at siraws, enlarge the news and are
usually such to be excused. But in this
particular, considering Its calling, is it
not wretchedly degrading and fearfuily
appalling? The Nsighborhood News it
Ia challenged to prove, but In that direc-
ton seems loath to move. Intrenched be-
hind the "Livy," 1t felt quite secure, and
we ct first made a mistake but now have
1t sure, and to say we are astounded is
putting mild and plain. for really such
trash can only eliminate from crank or
one a Ia insane. Well, white man ia nm
certain, is true saying Of old, and Gin
ders and birthstone often glittsrs more
brilliant than pure silver or gold.
